1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Previous research testifies that c-Myc may promote keloid fibroblast proliferation and collagen accumulation. Ubiquitin-specific peptidase 37 (USP37)-mediated deubiquitination and stabilisation of c-Myc are vital for lung cancer proliferation, while the potential role of USP37 in keloid fibroblasts is not investigated. Elevated USP37, c-Myc, and Collagen I content were detected in keloid tissue with RT-PCR or ELISA assay. USP37 over-expression plasmids or USP37 short hairpin RNAs (shRNAs) were transfected into keloid fibroblasts with Lipofectamine 3000 to decipher the role of USP37 in keloid fibroblasts. USP37 overexpression could promote the proliferation of keloid fibroblasts with increased c-Myc and Collagen I expression. On the other hand, USP37 shRNAs inhibited the proliferation of keloid fibroblasts with diminished c-Myc and Collagen I expression. It was worth noting that C-Myc overexpression promoted the proliferation of keloid fibroblasts inhibited by USP37 shRNAs with increasing Collagen I expression. All of these results demonstrate that USP37 could regulate c-Myc to promote the proliferation and collagen deposit of keloid fibroblasts, and USP37 could be targeted in future keloid therapy.
